Loves puppy snuggles
Pet care experience
Please note for past/current clients: I have increased my rates to account for rising gas prices and inflation. Thank you for your understanding. 🙏 Hello! My name is Shannon and I grew up with pets from a young age and even have experience training my pups. About a decade ago, I began my dogsitting journey by dogsitting for neighbors on a daily basis. This entailed walking, feeding, playing, and snuggling with the pup. I have experience working with shelter dogs who exhibit skittish behavior- they always manage to warm up to me. :) I then joined Rover in May 2017 and began doing drop-ins/walks initially. Since the Fall of 2018, I've been consistently house/dogsitting and have been absolutely loving it! I always make sure the house is spic and span before you get home. Animals that I've sat for include dogs, cats, and chickens (even baby chicks!). And I'm open to caring for other critters as well. I am happy to bring in your mail and water your plants too. :) Update: I adopted a male shih tzu mix, Pepper, in April 2023. He will most likely be accompanying me in my dogsitting stays. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations and does well with most dogs.
Reviews
Shannon was so great with our pets and went above and beyond our expectations. She sends wonderful updates and always works with us schedule wise. I felt very lucky to have our pets in such good hands while we are traveling
Shannon C. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
We love Shannon! We’ve booked her many times and will continue to have her back again and again!
Shannon did a wonderful job watching my kitten and dog this weekend. She took great care of them with walks, treats, photo updates, and went above and beyond by cleaning before she left. I would recommend her and will be using her in the future
About Shannon C.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
The main service I offer is dogsitting in your home. I will do my best to care for your fur babies the way you yourself care for them, as long as my schedule allows. I find that pups are much happier if they are able to stick with their routine while their owners are away.
Information Shannon C. would like to know about your pet
If you are wanting dogsitting services, I would like to know how many walks your dog(s) need and how long those walks are. I am now basing my rate on the amount of time the dog(s) require for daily walks. If daily walks exceed more than one hour, my rate will increase to account for that. My walking rate is $30 for 30 minutes or $50 for 60 minutes. If your dog requires two hours of walking a day, that ends up being $130. One day of dogsitting would be $130 instead of $80 in this case. We can go over this in more detail during the meet and greet. ☺️ Another thing that is important to note is that I am unavailable to dogsit high-energy dogs at this time. I look forward to meeting you and your furry loved ones!
A typical day
Walks, belly rubs, and snuggle time. It really depends on what your doggos needs are! Of course, playing fetch is a popular activity as well.

Availability
I currently work an 8:00-5:30, M-F job and am most available for doggy care weekday evenings and weekends. I'm a good fit for fur babies that do well being alone during the workday. I love to take dogs for walks in local neighborhoods/parks, play fetch, and give really awesome puppy massages. I am excited to bring your pup on adventures to the beach or on hikes if this is something that they also love to do. :) I'm able to stay overnight with pups. I'm usually not able to board your dog at my house as there is already one other dog in my household, however, this may be a possibile option that we can discuss further if your dog does well with other doggos.
